Purchased 2016 Chevy Cruze LT for $14,000, Considering Selling to Dealer, Good/Bad Idea?

We purchased a 2016 Chevy Cruze LT, new, black, for about $14,000. We're not all that happy with the vehicle and think maybe we should sell it and just stick with the other vehicle we have, waiting a few years to consider purchasing another. So, basically buyer's remorse I guess we can say.

Do you think it's a good idea to sell the car to a dealer? There are some that promise 120% of Kelly Blue Book value, but I haven't seen this car on KBB yet (only under new, or Limited). I'm not sure what we'd really be able to get.

We traded in a 2011 LS (about 40,000 miles) for about $4,500, which I think was a bad deal for us, which might be the reason why we were able to get the 2016 so low. They had trade-in incentives, and I think those "incentives" came out of what we should have gotten for our trade (basically, I think the trade was worth more than what we got).

I'm not really sure what to do. I'd kind of like to get rid of the Cruze and stay with one vehicle for some time. On the other hand, if that is a bad idea and doesn't make sense, then I guess we'll need to keep the 2016 Cruze.

Thanks in advance for all suggestions.
